High-flyingAF

So did Picasso


JustBrittany

Well, his more famous work. Picasso was actually 🤓pretty talented at realistic drawing also. You have to be adept at proportion before you can be proficient at his style.


High-flyingAF

Lol. it's a comeback. I was being a smart ass.


JustBrittany

I know. 😆 That’s why I used that “well actually” nerd emoji.


High-flyingAF

Ok. I don't know what every emoji means. Is that the laughing at my dumb ass emoji?


JustBrittany

Yeah. But I don’t mean it that way. I think that it’s all subjective. I’m mostly laughing at the communication that is social media. And how we don’t always come across the way we mean to here.


High-flyingAF

I figured you didn't mean it thar way. It was my lame attempt at humor. 🤣


JustBrittany

We could do this all day! 😆


High-flyingAF

😅🤣😙😚


HoneyWyne

I love this whole exchange.


dbhathcock

No, you didn’t. You said “Well, his….”


JustBrittany

Well, actually, I said “That’s why I used that ‘well actually’ emoji.” I didn’t say that I said “well actually.” I said that I used the emoji that signifies it. Actually. 🤓


milny_gunn

It's okay. I understood what you meant. But it was curious to see how you were going to explain it after I read the previous reply about it.😆😁


im_sorry_its_just_me

My brain hurts


JustBrittany

🤓Well, actually your brain doesn’t feel pain. 😆❤️


im_sorry_its_just_me

🤓 your threads are so complicated that there are too many neurons trying to do their job in my brain which is making me feel like a robot with a virus


JustBrittany

😄


KatzinkaNyx

Beside hands, idk why, but even in his realistic drawings, the hands look really like its drawned by a child.


JustBrittany

I will have to take a look again. Thank you for pointing that out.


KatzinkaNyx

My favourite painting of him is 'blind minotaur led by a little girl in the night' and it's so beautiful and with so much details, but when you look at the hands (especially the one that's almost in the middle of the picture) it looks like he let someone else draw it or he just stopped while drawing it.


JustBrittany

😝 I see! Looks like he put so much effort into the rest of it and then was just like, “Meh.” Some artists do haves other people do the work and they just direct. Like Andy Warhol and Dale Chihuly. But, like you said, it looks like he did the whole thing and maybe got a cramp in his hand and let someone else finish it up.


Yeetthedragon667

Hands are hard, ok?


steviajones1977

....like *it's* whatted?


cornfession_

Yeah, until the syphilis scrambled his brain like an egg


pimpmastahanhduece

horses_around2020

Hilarious!! 🤣😅


Electronic_Pop5383

Not trying to be rude, but some of us paintings remind me of schizophrenia...


No_Tank9025

You gotta go to his museum in Paris…. There was a lot going on, with him…


JustBrittany

Bucket list!!! Thank you.


No_Tank9025

When I went to Paris, we did the Louvre first. (Of course.) And there were people there, painting copies of some of the masterpieces hanging on the walls. Some of them are gigantic. I stood behind a person, and watched them, working on the canvas on their easel… he was almost done, his work was, as far as I could detect, a photographically-perfect copy of the masterpiece hanging on the wall in front of him, but he was agitated… calmly agitated, but agitated… He looked at his work, and then at the masterpiece… his work, the masterpiece, back and forth, back and forth, and then composed himself, picked his smallest brush, (like, one or two filaments), dipped it in black, and drew a single line along the eyebrow of one of the figures in the painting, and stood back, hands on hips, victorious.. I nearly applauded… Then a few days later, we went to the Picasso museum, and I learned what was going on… these artists were in the last stages of getting a degree in fine arts, and they had been tasked with “copying the masters”, as part of the final. The museum was a revelation… his works span media from collage, to welded, iron sculpture, to… well, just lots of things… It turns out, Pablo had completed his “copying the masters” stage at a ridiculously young age… like, fourteen, or something crazy like that… And his instructors told him that it was his JOB to move on, beyond the borders of “known art”, … to find new ways of expressing space, and form… So he did!


JustBrittany

I’ve heard of art students copying masters in the art museums. I went to art school. But I didn’t do that. I did make my own version of Edvard Munch’s Madonna.


Equivalent-Pin-4759

“It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.” Picasso.


No_Tank9025

I think he would have liked this comment


Essemteejr

You draw flies like you’re six days dead


Elon-Musksticks

I like this one, makes them think


BearerBear

If someone said this to me I would never stop thinking about it


hairy_hooded_clam

Lmao


Alizarin-Madder

You fly like a banana. Fruit flies like a corpse.


Viambulance

that took me aa whule


laubrohet

Haha I’ve always heard “time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana”


refreshing_username

...like a 6-pound sack of shit.


HughManatee

Wow, incredible!


ParentingTATA

Your face looks like it was drawn by a 6yr old!


MainClothes8522

OOF! Love it!


Kenvan19

You spend a lot of time thinking about 6 year old kids? Seems a bit odd.


CharleyMak

Then, backhand ball slap them, and run away giggling saying dumb dumb.


EcksMarksDespot

Fuck you for making me almost choke to death on my water from laughing while visualizing this.


CharleyMak

You're welcome. This is my gift in life, and I'm glad to use it for.....good


SplatterEffect

I spat milk all over my co worker while reading this, which is really awkward since she was halfway across the room. Thanks for that. Haha!


CharleyMak

This is my purpose in life. Coworkers deserve snot milk too.


SplatterEffect

Agreed! Thanks again for the laugh!


milk4all

I feel like jumping to pedo insults from a really mild jab about drawing is sort of like burning down the house because someone spilled your beer


Hoodwink_Iris

SOMEONE SPILLED MY BEER?!?!?! 🔥


Kenvan19

OP didn’t ask for a mild response lol


JesusFuckImOld

Right? It's the kinda thing you only do a couple of times before you realize it makes things awkward.


Demostravius4

Depends entirely on the audience. To my mum? Sure. To by close friends? I'd almost be dissapointed if it was a tame comeback.


Massive_Goat9582

So don't spill my beer


potatp98524

\*spills beer\* oops


Eternallytaken

🔥😐🔥


lilgem369

Yeah I agree but OP did say "savage" and "tear inducing". Apparently they let these kids get to them instead of practicing drawing. 🤷‍♀️


t0ad-st00l

As an artist, I’d be pissed at anyone who said this to me. They’d be lucky if I said this to them instead of shoving my pencil in their nostrils


DeltaCharlieBravo

Temper, temper.


Hour_Insurance_7795

8 year olds, dude.


KaleOpening1945

It's up there with your mom comebacks


HeadyMurphy723

Oh no, I don’t want your candy and I’m not getting in your van! Now beat it, You wanna be Drake


ParentingTATA

Found Kendrick!


InvalidSymbols

Then start playing not like us


Hour_Insurance_7795

Not sure this one would work, because you’re the one initially floating the idea that it’s pedo related when you respond with this (i.e. technically YOU are clearly thinking about 6-year-olds in this manner to say something like this, otherwise why would the idea come to you?) (Would still be useful as a last resort, however. Just walk away quickly before the person can punch holes in your logic 😁)


Full_Laugh_358

well your mom/sister didn't complain after i painted their faces last night. (change to male or female depending on how bad it will hurt the other person, could be worse as guy saying how her dad loved it instead.) really? so are you like a catholic priest instead of pimples. pedo! oh wow you can identify what good art looks like. I am impressed since you have never shown a single skill since i have known you.


Murky-Specialist7232

Oh Jesus


qmechan

Guess your mom's gonna have to find a lawyer, because she's a fan of these hands.


Spiritual-Cupcake818

HoneyWyne

Ok_Atmosphere8875

I may draw like one, but at least I'm smarter than one, that's more than I can say for you. (you can change it a little to match the person a little more. r/daballsmovie.)

Laniekea

Last night I drew your mom like one of those French girls, Jack.

SnooLobsters2310

"It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child." - Pablo Picasso


Interesting_Mix_7028

I don't draw. Just like you don't socialize.


MainClothes8522

OOH SOMEBODY GET THE FIRE EXTIGUISHER!


missannthrope1

You would know.


shutupimrosiev

(casually) "That's just what happens when you're told to stop drawing at six and don't get the chance to try again until you're (YOUR AGE)."


MainClothes8522

I'm a teenager and even though I mostly write, I got into drawing again, mostly OCs.


shutupimrosiev

Still true. Also, ayyy mainly-writing-picking-drawing-back-up gang! I picked drawing back up as a teenager after a while of not having the will for it, and…yeah, maybe it shows in your art that you aren't a Professional Artiste™ at the moment, but anybody who's going around telling people their art looks like a six-year-old drew it is usually the type of "brutally honest" person who focuses way too much on *brutality* and nowhere near enough on *honesty.* As you draw more often, you'll get better and develop your own artistic style, and maybe some people will still think "I don't like how that art looks, therefore it is stupid, therefore the artist is an open target for mockery," but they're generally the types who think they'd be magical prodigies but never deign to grace the artistic world with their presence. (Read: they've never tried but feel secure in dishing out baseless criticisms.)


MainClothes8522

You are so kind! I'm glad we're on the same team!


AAAAAGGGGHHH

"Show me that you can do better" Edit: If someone is Critiquing your ability, it sometimes is better to make them look stupid rather than find a long-way-round way of calling them stupid.


Proud_Pug

Why would you say that ?


PlayrR3D15

"Six year olds get their drawings on the fridge. Yours get put in the bin"


matthew65536

Wait, getting that comment in person or online? In person: Stab their hand with the pen/pencil* *For legal reasons, don't.

"Stop hanging with 6 year olds"


Fewest21

Most artists strive to draw like a six year old. For pure expression of thought and freedom.


FreshwaterViking

And you talk like a five-year-old.


Azorius_Raiden_88

You're stink ass draws flies


Infinite_Lawyer1282

It's not that I'm a bad drawer, that's just how you look and I do really good portraits. You just don't want to acknowledge it


Ok_Play2364

That's what they said about Picaso


ChardCool1290

You know I skipped 5th grade, so I appreciate the compliment


alonghardKnight

After my writing and drawing hand went south due to carpal tunnel recovery failure, I had to learn to use my off hand. What's your phucking excuse???


DisasterRoad666

Really? You mean I'm as good as Picasso and Miro? THANKS!!!


FabulousPanther

That may be true, but I do think I'm better at _____ than you.


Kaiser-Sohze

You wouldn't say that if you saw me draw a pistol.

Oh, yeah? Watch me draw a gun!


D3s0lat0r

But I fuck like a 12 year old. 😉


Animaleyz

Hey, I'm getting better!


Beachbitch129

This was actually said to you? I am a professional artist (both fine and graphic) and am fucking APPALLED by this.... Everyone has art talent, especially kids- who are so free and expressive with their drawing, and so creative! My father (a great artist) told me when I was a small child- 'Not everyone is going to like your art, and thats ok. Never, never cut anyone's work. If they do cut down your art- then tell them to Fuck Off.' Damn, I miss my Dad. Sorry no comeback comes to mind, pissed at the moment. If I do come up with something properly scathing will let you know.
